Key Features

Charge phones, GPS, tablets and more: The Guide 10 Plus is the perfect on-the-go accessory for all the battery-hungry devices you own. Plug USB devices directly into the port on the Guide 10 Plus – one recharge on a phone, two to three charges on small cameras, or boost a tablet 10-15% in a pinch.

Removable, Rechargeable Batteries: Stop spending money on one-use batteries. The Guide 10 Plus gets its power from four, removable and rechargeable nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) batteries. Use these AAs for headlamps, flashlight, and remotes and save money while you do it. The Guide 10 Plus also works with other rechargeable NiMH batteries.

Recharge anywhere: Batteries running low? Plug the Guide 10 Plus into any USB port, like a laptop or wall adapter, to charge it up in 6 hours. On the go and in the sun? Rapid charge the Guide 10 Plus by plugging it into one of Goal Zero’s Nomad Solar Panels and you’ll have full batteries in about 3 hours of full sun.

There are two ways to charge your Guide 10:

The Sun: The Guide 10 Plus can be charged by connecting a compatible solar panel (see the chart below for solar compatibility).

USB: The Guide 10 Plus can also be charged by being plugged into a USB power source.

FAQ

WHAT GOAL ZERO PRODUCTS WORK BEST WITH THE NOMAD 7? Goal Zero Switch 8 Recharger, Guide 10 Plus, and Rock Out Portable Speaker.
